CORAM : SUNIL B. SHUKRE &
AVINASH G. GHAROTE, JJ.
DATE : 15.1.2021.
ORAL JUDGMENT (Per Sunil B. Shukre, J) :
1. Rule, made returnable forthwith. Heard finally
by consent.
2. On going through the reply filed on record just
today, we are satisfied that the respondents have
performed their duty and now the ball lies really in the court
of Allahabad Police. If any transfer of prisoner like the
petitioner herein from a prison situated in the State of
Maharashtra to the prison situated in the State of Uttar
Pradesh is to take effect, it cannot take effect unless the
Uttar Pradesh police also agrees for accepting transfer of
the petitioner to one of their prisons. Since this petition
involves inter-state transfer issue, the transfer of petitioner
would depend upon reciprocity shown mutually by both the
sides. As stated just now, the proposal regarding accepting
transfer of petitioner to one of the prisons situated in the
State of Uttar Pradesh is presently pending with Uttar
Pradesh police. Therefore, this petition has been filed pre-
maturely and cannot be entertained at this juncture. The
petition stands dismissed. Rule is discharged.
3. Learned Counsel (appointed) for the petitioner be
paid remuneration of Rs.2,500/-.
